SANTA CLAUS, Ind. (FOX 11) - An Indiana couple got engaged on a roller coaster because, well, life is like a roller coaster.

FOX 59 reports the two college students boarded a ride at Holiday World in Santa Claus, Indiana when Austin Crecelius popped the question to his girlfriend, Allison Boyle.

While a friend rolled video (and ignored a speaker telling him to put his phone away), the ride goes up, up and up.

"At one point in time you had mentioned to me that life is like a roller coaster," He tells her. "And it’s got its up and downs, it’s got twists and turns, and it even throws you for a loop sometimes. And though you can go by yourself, it’s a lot more fun to go with another person. So I wanted to ask you if you wanted to be my roller coaster buddy. Allie, will you marry me?"

She said yes!

But then they have to ride the rest of the roller coaster crying happy tears.
